QuESt – RhiiimePower | @YesIAmQuESt

QuESt, the young phenom from Miami drops his own version of Kendrick Lamar’s “HiiiPower” instrumental that was crafted by J. Cole. I was honestly just happy enough that he didn’t follow the masses with a remix to “Marvin’s Room”.  QuESt claims that “RhiiimePoWer’ is about taking pride in your lyrical content as an MC.

Think I’m lying?

MV: Kendrick Lamar – HiiiPoWeR (Prod. J. Cole) | @Kendrick_Lamar @JColeNC
